"Anuga has a global profile, drawing buyers from around the world. This is the action with the largest projected business volume on our calendar. That is why participating is key to the programming of exports over the next 12 months," he explains," said CEO of ABPA, Francisco Turra. Mr. Turra also added that hundreds of business meetings are scheduled during the initiative.
In addition to business, ABPA participation in Anuga is also focused on the image of the industry. Meetings are planned with stakeholders and journalists from the European Union and other economic blocs. Promotional materials on the Brazilian Chicken, Brazilian Egg and Brazilian Pork brands will be distributed to those attending the fair, with information on Brazilian exports and a profile of the country's production system.
"Brazil has undertaken the responsibility of helping the world's food security. Within this context, we want to show our characteristics and differentials to the representatives from across the world that will be at this fair. Our production system benefits from various factors, such as an abundant grain supply, an unmatched health status among major global producers, lower energy consumption, thanks to our climate, and other factors that have made our product a reference in quality, health, and sustainability," says the CEO of ABPA.
ABPA is the political and institutional representative of Brazil's poultry and pork growers. The Association has over 140 member companies and organizations from various links in the poultry and pork production chain, which account for exports in excess of USD 8 billion.
